Giants linebacker: ‘I heard Romo scream’

DALLAS – Giants linebacker Michael Boley took pride in knocking Tony Romo out of Monday night’s game and possibly the rest of the season.

Boley came through untouched to flatten Romo early in the second quarter. When Romo crashed to the turf with Boley on top of him, it broke the quarterback’s left clavicle.

Romo is the fifth quarterback the Giants have knocked out of a game this season. He joins Carolina’s Matt Moore, Chicago’s Jay Cutler, Chicago’s Todd Collins and Detroit’s Shaun Hill as passer that have been pounded to the sideline by Big Blue’s defenders.

“We’ve been good this year about putting pressure on people,” Boley said. “…It’s a division game. And it ain’t no secret. We don’t like the Cowboys.”

Boley said it was shocking how poorly the Cowboys reacted to the bliz.

“The guard didn’t see me,” Boley said. “He blocked down on the tackle. Both backs went to the other side, so I came scot free.”

Boley said he knew right away that something was wrong with Romo.

“When he hit the ground, I heard he let out a little scream, so I knew something was up,” Boley said. “But I didn’t think he was going to lay down. I thought it was just a normal hit. After I got up and started running, I looked back after the play was over and he was still down.

“Anytime somebody gets hurt in this league, you hate to see it. I wish him the best.”
